india - a week has passed
HI geeks and guys (i know it is a commercial greeting, but WTF!!)
I just impressed some indian people with a card reader to upload some photos lol!!
well, learnt a lot of things. Today I’ve been at Bangalore centre (As I’m like 60Km away from any kind of society, in a remote centre in the middle of a jungle/forest/ mountains).
All I am doing is walking kids to school, playing football, basketball, volleyball and kind of tennis. you have to stick to their own rules, weird rules, whatever, but still it is fun 
Well what I’ve learnt is that indians rarely loose hair (like i did lol) so they all are so proud with their hairstyles. THey all carry a pettner in their back pockets, if you don’t have one, you’re outdated man! (in malta it is the other way round lol!)
Buses? don;t try to understand schedule, routes or whatever. ON each bus stop “Il kunduttur” starts shouting the destination name and if it matches where you need to go just go up. if you manage!!! no queue ideas, you know every one pushing. buses, have people hanging on the back, and also sheep etc on the bus lol. people carry everything in the bus 
IT is a very dirty country, but hey, it is really beautiful City centres not that it impressed me so much, but where I am situated, in the middle of nowhere, it is so wonderful. At night all you hear is different kind of animals screaming or shouting or whatever.
The city centres, have these cool small shops, like tailors, ironing of cloths (no electric irons, just one with boiling water or have to be heated on a cooker 
), tv and video repair (mmm…. from the sceen I doubt if he can really fix things :P).
Well that is all for now as I have to rush back to the centre, as I am sleeping at the city centre overnight so tomorrow I leave to the middle of nowhere.
Well, the post above might sounds as a pessimistic one, but none of it!!! Although they are ages behind, cities are hectic and dirty, it’s a total different world from ours which anyone would really like! different culture you know (nahseb qed nigi daqsxejn ikkulturat!!! lol!!!)..
some pics, enjoy
